As reported today by Philly.com, the beer combines Wawa's Winter Blend coffee, a limited edition brew, with the brewery's oatmeal stout and tastes of sweet clove, dark chocolate and graham crackers. The idea for the beer came about during a meeting at 2SP, when three of its brewers were drinking different Wawa coffees. "Next thing you know, we are trying each one, talking about the merits of each coffee, similar to the way we do with beer,” Contreras told Philly.com. “It seemed like the only thing we agreed on that day was our taste in coffee. Then it occurred to us; Why don’t we hit up our neighbors at Wawa and see if they had any interest in brewing a coffee stout with us?”

The beer will launch Dec. 6 at a Wawa in Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania, which is the only Wawa that sells beer. Fifty cases will be available for purchase on a first-come, first-served basis. Attendees can enjoy complimentary beer tastings, Wawa said. The store is at 721 Naamans Creek Road.

During the week of Dec. 10, only 1,000 cases of the beer will be available for purchase through Origlio Beverage in Philadelphia.
